The wilderness areas of Botswana offer a classic safari experience.
Overall rating
5/5

Wildlife conservation in Botswana has been largely successful. With the exception of a network of 'veterinary fences', parks are not fenced and animals can travel freely. Thus, the country feels wild and open. The desert parks of the Kalahari are vast and quiet, and the harsh red landscape demands a taut awareness. In contrast, the abundance of wildlife in the lush Okavango Delta makes for an extraordinary experience. Elephants move through camp during the day, and lions prowl at night.

The people of Botswana are friendly and hospitable. If you travel to this place, bring with you an easy attitude. Let's keep Botswana a classic safari destination!

Hands down, my favorite place in Africa. Remote, but easy travel between camps means little time wasted in transit. Amazing wildlife, bird life and scenic beauty.

Botswana is a safe, secure and friendly place to visit Africa. The people welcome tourists and have carefully conserved the game and birds of Africa.

Less "mass" touristic" than in other countries. Wild experience in preserved nature.
People in Botswana is very open and helpful.

A country where one feels at risk as regards personal safety. We walked around after dark. Slightly more developed than Zambia or Zimbabwe, maybe because the clientele were largely South African.

No hassle - no self-drivers/campers, unspoiled nature and lots of game to spot.
